This is not good

Holy shit, this is not good, it fails in almost every single aspect what the hell. Trust me in this one: If you're really interested in this just read the damn manga, this drama is NOT worth it.

First, what bothers me the most, is the acting.

The female lead does a horrible job in acting, she tries so hard to copy the aspects of how the female lead acts in the manga that she forgets that this is not a manga, it's a television show and she's a human, not a cartoon character. The same can be said for the other actors, most of them fall for this trap to try and act like their manga counterparts and end up making of the silliest and most awkward acting I've seen in a while. They tried making as faithful as possible to the manga not remembering that there are things that ONLY WORK IN THEIR RESPECTIVE MEDIAS.

The romance is quite rushed with stupid silly plotlines (TOO SILLY EVEN), you can't take the "villains" seriously 'cause is just too silly, maybe this is a country aspect but I just could NOT take those girls seriously at all. They're fighting this one Sasuke-inspired kid and keep saying that "he's for everyone" as if he was an object, and trying to ruin some girl's life because she apparently is his friend, like??????

This show was filmed in 2017, a time when we already had plenty of very beautiful dramas and movies with smaller budgets even, this show looks like it was filmed in the early 2000s. It looks like someone took their mother's camera and everything she had was this one that she gained on her birthday in the '80s and they were like "sure ok no one's gonna notice" GUESS WHAT, I NOTICED.

It has this VERY desaturated filter throughout the whole thing, quite yellowish too (I watched it on Netflix), really ugly.

In short: Read the manga, don't waste your time with this piece of crap
